Dak is improving

[Cowboysrgv85]

Yes, I know his fumble was unforgivable. He also whiffed on the two wide open wrs for td on a single play.

But you can see the confidence growing in his throwing, he's starting to look down field for those chunk plays. I say we stick it out with him this season. I think he's in the middle of finding his stride right now. That being said, if he regresses or doesn't continue on this path depending on our options in FA/ draft, put the writing on the wall.

He definitely played better the last couple games, and the last game under duress. But that fumble... jeez. That's what he doesn't usually do. Stupid turnovers

Yup, but oddly i'm at peace with it right now. I feel like it was a learning experience. But I could be crazy.

Apparently you missed all the times he pulled back and ran against prevent and soft zones when he had dudes running down the seams wide open or down the sidelines

 

[ClintDagger]

He was awful. Missing open guys all day long. Enough of this “Dak is getting better.” He’s not a NFL franchise QB. If you think he is or will be your football IQ is lower than Dak’s jersey number. He’s a very low end starter or high end backup. If that’s what you want as your starting QB then you’re a worse talent evaluator than Jerry.

No I saw all the missed throws. But he's at least now looking down field and throwing more than check downs

 

[Big D]

I'd like to see how he performs under a coaching staff that knows what they're doing before giving up on him.

if only our tackles could block someone. Then seeing DT's pushing Conner Williams right into him is making him leave the pocket early. Wish we did more chipping out of the ends when we see our tackles struggling to block. Dak is getting beat up this year.

We should of never forced williams to start. I didn't think he was ready. I was hoping we signed those vet lineman in the offense to start one of them. Now if they sucked then I am all for letting the young guy williams to get in there and take his lumps.

Would of like to see williams, collins, looney, martin, flemming. We have to get a strong guard to keep the pocket clean. Can't have a guard getting pushed around easily and shrinking the pocket.

Are we sure williams didn't get bit by the same bug "The Beard" got bit by? Williams have been TERRIBLE this season.

....he panicked, ...and tried to do to much. Very likely wont happen again.

Neat. Insults on the internet. Original.

I’m not talking about missed throws. You do realize all his success running the last two drives was because he tucked and ran despite having guys wide open downfield. He was scared to throw it with guys wide open.

I think williams will be good.

He just needs a season to get to nfl size.

That fumbled, he had Gallup wide open down the sideline on single coverage and the inside leverage.. He didn’t throw it. He had Zeke in the same line of sight on the checkdown with like three steps on a freaking LB and he didn’t throw it. Zeke was jumping up and down. He then had a chance to get it to Jarwin I believe on the right side, saw the delayed rush and just panicked to tuck it even though he had plenty of time to throw.

I'm sorry, misunderstanding. In this context, when I say missed throws I'm referring to the throws where he had wrs wide open and failed to see or pull the trigger.

 

[MojaveJT]

At least we know he can get some yards against a Prevent D. LOL

 

[GenoT]

We’re currently 3-4, with some tough games coming up.

As for Dak, much like the team, he’s basically treading water — nothing more, nothing less.

 

[HungryLion]

Lol I figured this thread title would trigger Khiladi.

Confidence is growing?? Dude who are you watching? That whole game was a clinic on anxiety in the pocket.
